About this title: In Repetition Kierkegaard discusses the most profound implications of the unity of personhood and of identity within change-the repetition that creates the rebirth of God in the heart of man, brings the eternal into the present, and allows the past to retain its meaning.

"Kierkegaard is the Mozart of philosophy. Fear and Trembling begins with four variations on the story of Abraham and Isaac, each a miniature masterpiece of evocation. I've read this book several times, each time with pleasure - there's nothing quite like Kierkegaard railing against the "universal," exalting the singular, the exceptional, and introducing with anti-Hegelian flourish the "teleological suspension of the ethical." That's a phrase to make you grin in the grimmest times.
There's also dark theological comedy - in SK's repeated refrain that either Abraham had a unique experience of faith (an absolute relation to the absolute!) ... or... "Abraham is lost."
"I read "Fear and Trembling" for one of my philosophy classes. I first read it without any guidance or preparation, so it was not surprising to learn that I had completely misinterpreted it on my own. Unless you're some sort of prodigy, this is the kind of book that you need to be guided through, carefully and patiently, by an expert. It can turn out to be an utterly tortuous process, or an enlightening one, as it was for me."
